City University London launches Autism&Uni Toolkit

After several months of setting up and extending the Autism&Uni toolkit, City University London launched it to their autistic students in October 2023.

Lucy Witten, Disability & Neurodiversity Advisor in the Student Health and Wellbeing Team, has spent the better part of 2023 on setting up the toolkit and linking it with the university’s Student Hub. Lucy has customised several aspects of the toolkit. For example, she has used the toolkit’s “Locations” feature to help students find not only general campus buildings but also Wellbeing Services and the Sensory Room, which is especially equipped for autistic students.

Lucy’s team are now monitoring the toolkit’s use and impact.
